Looking for a msd distributor for my olds 455 engine or other nice distributors with magnetic pick ups and that would work well with my msd 6a and blaster 3 coil.

I was looking at a HEI style on eBay for $42.50 complete with a 50,000 coil.

Personally, with my buddy running a STOCK distributor on his 8 second dragster, I can't see the benifit of spending MSD type prices. The only one I would consider would be the Malloy with the rev limiter, but I don't feel that's worth the $400 price tag.

I have a MSD distributor that I replaced with a stock distributor for $50+ shipping. Nothing wrong with it and came out of my 68 442 400. Let me know if interested.
